Most of the people older then 30 suffer from this conditon to a bigger or lesser extent. Smoking also doesnt help.
I was quite horrified when I woke up one day and found out that gums around my one canine tooth had significantly receded, so much so that the neck of the tooth started showing. Most probably the process was not so sudden that it happened over night but thats how I noticed.
Dental check up and x ray didnt show any problems with the tooth and as I was preety much aware before it seemed there is no effective treatment for this condition.
Most medical practitioners and dentists will advise you to take metronidazol which is a huge mistake, as this is very powerful antibiotic and antiprotozoik agent which just happens to have good effect on the gums but for a short period of time.
The damage this medication can do to a healthy organism its far bigger then beneficiary effect on the gums. And that was pretty much it when it comes to medical establishment.
But then I found advice to rub the affected place with coenzyme Q10.
Ubiquinone or CoQ10 is normally sinthetized in the body during the young age but with years its production significantly decreases. It is a powerfull antioxidant and essential substance in cell respiration, electron transfer and ATP production. In short it is responsible for healthy circulation all over the body, be it gums, brain or myocard.
Q10 has latelly become quite famous since most of the skin care products advertise it application on the skin through antiaging products. But ladies, dont waste your money. This doesnt have any scientific base as the resorption of this coenzyme through the skin is practically insignificant.
Since these products are usually quite costly it might be worth to inform people that this is just a marketing scam.
On the other hand application of Q10 on the gums makes much more sense. There is great number of available preparations on the market but the most appropriate for this are the capsules.
I purchased preparation of well known supplement products brand which contains 30mg CoQ10 suspened in Soya oil.
I devised combined application i.e one day I would massage the gums with the contents of the capsule and next day I would take the capsule orally. The massage never lasted more then 5 min for the entire gums.
Five days have passed and I am amazed with the results. The gums around affected tooth are now covering the neck of it and are almost equal to the rest of the gums.
I am not saying this is a miracle cure as its to early to say what is going to happen with my gums in a long run. For now I can say that my gums never looked healthier and I thought this might be valid advice for people who suffer from the same problem.
If you are taking any medication it might be worth to know that certain medicines have antagonistic effect on Q10, so better check with appropriate source before throwing money down the drain.
